Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    No that wasn't my thinking. By intellectual depth, I meant what comes with erudition (which doesn't have much to do with intelligence in itself). You may be an erudite too. Can't really tell from here but if you already have the looks...

    This board is actually full of very "unique" individuals (take our beloved Siamanto for instance).
    I guess, we, Armenians, are pretty "unique", pretty "special", generally speaking

      We should get together, like most of you live here in SoCal.

      That would be nice.

          From the wiki article:

          Dugin's ideas, particularly those on "a Turkic-Slavic alliance in the Eurasian sphere" have recently become popular among certain nationalistic circles in Turkey.Dugin's ideas, particularly those on "a Turkic-Slavic alliance in the Eurasian sphere" have recently become popular among certain nationalistic circles in Turkey.

              This is actually quite interesting and I am glad you picked that up.
              If we compare both discourses, this is really an epsilon.
              And if it weren't for our friend Armenian being armenian...
              Think a bit... do people glorifying comrade stalin embarass themselves with ethical scruples?
              And "geopolitically" speaking, an alliance with turkey does make sense after all...

                  Well, "strategically" it does make sense, somewhat.

                  Here is a site dedicated to it: http://www.axisglobe.com/article.asp?article=213

                  But there are many other factors that need to be considered as well, not the least of which is the geopolitical status-quo on earth today and cultural/sociological factors that exist between peoples.

                  It is well known that there has been historic distrust and rivalry between Turks and Russians. Both peoples number approximately the same, they both live in close proximity to each other and they can potentially compete for the region's natural resources and political influence. Russians already have demographic and domestic problems with Muslims and Turanians. Also, in order for any talk about a Russian-Turkish alliance to occur certain aspects of Russian and Turkish nationalism need to be put aside first.

                  And these elements of nationalism are fundamental parts of Russian and Turkish national identity and political outlook. Will Turkey, for example, be willing to forget about its presence in the Back Sea and the Caucasus? Is Ankara willing to forget about it's pan-Turkic aspirations in Central Asia? Is Ankara willing to forget about Azerbaijan? Is Ankara willing to down grade its alliance with various nations? Is Ankara willing to be at the mercy of Russia when it comes to acquiring oil and gas? Is Ankara willing to turn against the West? Is Ankara willing to abandon the EU in total? Perhaps. But what are the chances of these drastic changes to occur?

                  Besides, a Russo-Turkish alliance does not necessarily equate to a second Armenian Genocide. What interest would Moscow have in eliminating the Armenian factor in the Caucasus?

                  Nevertheless, for any of these fundamental changes to occur there needs to be drastic revolutionary changes within the politics and societies of both Russia and Turkey. Something close to what we are discussing almost occurred in the early stages of the Bolshevik revolution. There was an attempt by Turks and Bolsheviks to forge an alliance. Because Armenia at the time was defenseless Armenians lands were given away to Turkey and Azerbaijan in oder to facilitate this alliance. But, as we now know, the Turkish flirtation with the Bolsheviks was simply a rouse, for Ankara was looking westward.

                  There will always be a risk of the major nations in the region - be it Iran, Turkey or Russia - uniting at our expense. There might even be a day when Russia is not able to render us any support. And that is exactly why we need to have a capable military, a self-sustained economy, and a efficient diplomatic corps - for those rainy days when we are alone.

                  In short: There are many variables to this debate and the geopolitical dynamics of the region is such that a Russian-Turkish alliance is highly unlikely. As a matter of fact, there is more of a danger of us Armenians alienating Russians. We almost did that several times in the last fifteen years. We have a lot of shortsighted morons in our society and government. That is why I take anti-Russian talk by Armenians very seriously and I look at individuals such as Paruyr Hayrikyan and Levon Ter Petrosyan as longterm dangers to the Armenian Republic.

                  Anyway, this topic belong in the Russian thread, not here. If you want to continue please continue there.

                    I apologize for the late reply, I was just told that my name was mentioned in this thread.

                    Considering that I have always appreciated the natural kindness and truthfulness of your soul, the passionate and principled stance in your views, the harmonious marriage of traditions and modernity in your values...I feel flattered.

                    Instead of answering the question of the thread, I will simply express my hope that those who left for HyteVitality will have the generosity to return to AC.

                      What you politely call "erudition," some of us call "knowledge, literature and culture" - what he, obviously, lacks.
                      LOL In any case, when an "erudite," don't you think that he'll be - to be polite - a vulgar and redneck version of Ara Baliozian?

                      LOL Yes, it is sad to see dumb bullies like you. By the way, how come you missed the vulgar, illiterate and uncultured aspect? Too dumb to see???
